I tagged myself, forcefully, to make a post !!!

What do you know about your blogo-friends ????

Actually nothing, when we start reading their blogs. But slowly, we get a sense of their personality through their words and expressions.  The issues that bother them, the memories close to their heart, the people who trouble them and those who love them dearly.  In effect, we get to know them slowly, with every post they write, which is a honest reflection of that blogger. 

So many of these things make the readers relate to them, with similar personal experiences.

Its been some time, since I am part of this blogoworld and I am so happy to say that I’ve made so many wonderful friends over here, than in real life.

Have all the like-minded ppl come together, here ????

And yday, one of my wonderful friends, Swaram, asked us to answer the following questions in her blog, because she was so bored at work  😉   and she needed some real good entertainment. What better way !!!! 😉

But, Swaru, I just can’t answer them over there – you see, I need fodder for my blog. So, I made a post out of it. Brilliant me !!!! LOL 😆

I was introduced to this wonderful world of blogging through my best friend, Butterfly and I started of with Blogger.  Dear Butterfly, this one is for you.

 So, it’ll be only Butterfly who used to write comments to my posts. Even though we meet everyday, you see we were neighbours too, it was fun discussing our posts !!! 🙂

It was you, Swaram, who came and wrote the first comment – a person  I didn’t know at that time.  And I was so happy to know, that you stayed in the same city with me.  And the first post, which I read of yours was the picture post on squirrels, when you go for your morning walks. I still remember those pics.  I was maha thrilled to receive your comments and would anxiously wait for your visit again.  And slowly and surely, I understood the kind of person you are, through the morals you follow, the code of living you have for yourself and the best of all is the spirit with which you approach life.  🙂

When there is a troll on your blog, when a friend back-stabs at you or when the robbers raped your home, you’ve come out head high, full of positive spirit towards life and that makes you a wonderful person !!!! Hugs to you !!!! 🙂

Yes, I love you, as a blogger, as a friend and as a fellow Hyderabadi !!! 😉

You are one of the finest persons, I’ve met so far and I wish we meet soon !!! Yes, sometimes, I scold myself for not taking a serious initiative to meet you. I should have dropped at your place for a breakfast of aloo parathas !!!! 😉

Now, I’ll answer your questions, OK !!!  

1. Who are you?

I am your blogger friend, waiting to meet you !!!!

2. Are we friends?

Absolutely !!! 🙂

3. Something I have and YOU want?

That smile which takes you through all rough times !!!! 🙂

4. Give me a nickname and explain why you picked it.

Actually, I like your nickname, Swaram !!! Swarams are the basic notes in music and they are very essential for every raaga, as the swarams define them.  It’s a lovely name, which suits you well than your actual name !!!  Maybe, I can say, that you are the swaram in Su’s life. Wah !! Wah !!!!

5. Describe me in one word.

Positive-spirit-o-smiley.

6. What was your first impression of me?

That you’ve good morals in life – remember the post in which you explained how you tried helping your maid’s children, with their studies ???

7. Do you still think that way about me now?

Yes, indeed.

8. What reminds you of me?

That we should meet soon.

9. If you could give me anything what would it be?

Anything you ask !!!! Maybe that Tupperware something, that I promised you !!!!  And a big bear hug !!! 🙂

10. How well do you know me?

Enough to write a post for you !!! 😉

11. How do you see me in the future?

Spreading the smiles !!!!  🙂 🙂 🙂

12. Ever wanted to tell me something but couldn’t ??

So far, NO !!!

13. Are you going to post this in your blog and see what I say about you?

Yes, I’ve posted. Now its your turn, dear. 🙂

  5. woah, never thought swaram would have a fan !!! 😀 😀 😀 😀
    Why ???? Whats wrong ?????
    well, anything for a post huh ums ? 😀 😀 😀 😀
    Wellll, not anything. But tags I love always have a big attraction to me. 😉

    But I have seen such online or offline bondings only between girls. I have not come across any guy doing a similar gesture for another guy unless if he is you know-you know 😉
    You are a nut !!! Girls bond well with just simple gestures and good listening and talking. I guess, guys are different – you shld tell me.

    and yes, swaram is indeed a very good human being ! I second you on that ! 🙂
    Finally, some admission of truth. Why, you want her to make aloo parathas when u visit Hyd, next time, eh ???
